Henry Louis Mencken - A Book Of Burlesques

Church: A place in which gentlemen who have never been to Heaven brag about it to people who will never get there.
Creator: A comedian whose audience is afraid to laugh. Three proofs of His humor: democracy, hay fever, any fat woman.
Civilization: A concerted effort to remedy the blunders and check the practical joking of God.
Evil: That which one believes of others. It is a sin to believe evil of others, but it is seldom a mistake.
Idealist: One who, on noticing that a rose smells better than a cabbage, concludes that it will also make better soup.
Theology: An effort to explain the unknowable by putting it into terms of the not worth knowing.
University: A place for elevating sons above the social rank of their fathers. In the great American universities men are ranked as follows: 1. Seducers; 2. Fullbacks; 3. Booze-fighters; 4. Pitchers and Catchers; 5. Poker players; 6. Scholars; 7. Christians.

Rockabilly @ FNAC Madeira - The Legendary Tigerman

The Legendary Tigerman @ Fnac -Madeira
The stage was to small for such a large "band".

Rockabilly incarnation. Made me miss Tédio Boys!

If you ever plan to motor west,
travel my way, take the highway that is best.
Get your kicks on Route sixty-six.

It winds from Chicago to LA,
more than two thousand miles all the way.
Get your kicks on Route sixty-six.

Now you go though Saint Looey
Joplin, Missouri,
and Oklahoma City is mighty pretty.
You see Amarillo,
Gallup, New Mexico,
Flagstaff, Arizona.
Don't forget Winona,
Kingman, Barstow, San Bernandino.

Won't you get hip to this timely tip:
when you make that California trip
Get your kicks on Route sixty-six.
